The Diwan was created in July 1979 to research and study specific issues requested by the President, the Council of Ministers, the Economic Affairs Committee (EAC), and the Revolutionary Command Council (RCC). The Diwan was purely an administrative presidential bureau with no policymaking authority. It had several departments representing a variety of issues (see Figure 1). There was also an Administrative Department and a Financial Accounts Department. http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/library/report/2004/isg-fi... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2014-09-07 14:18:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_Provisional_Authority... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2014-09-07 14:18:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Presidential Diwan http://books.google.com.eg/books?id=PX8LAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA38&lpg... https://www.cia.gov/library/reports/general-reports-1/iraq_wmd_2004/chap2_annxC.html |
